Regarding From scratchShinoda stated: “Before Linkin Park, our first band name was Xero. This album title refers both to these humble beginnings and to the journey we are currently on. Sonically and emotionally it’s about past, present and future – embracing our signature sound, but new and full of life.

Ahead of the release, Linkin Park unveiled the singles ‘The Emptiness Machine’, ‘Heavy Is the Crown’, ‘Over Each Other’ and ‘Two Faced’.
